“We don’t send lawyers to jail, because we run the country.” – From the 60 Minutes report: Anonymous, Inc.
What follows is one of the most important videos I have ever shared. Watch it and then send it to everyone you know. The issue of criminal money laundering via real estate has been one of the core topics (http://libertyblitzkrieg.com/?s=money+laundering+real+estate) here at Liberty Blitzkrieg for years now. Not only is it extremely unethical, but it leads to prime real estate being used as empty investment vehicles, which ultimately prices out American citizens and destroys communities.
Before taking a watch, I want to highlight a few of the more shocking revelations:
• The U.S. is well known as a global hub for money laundering and is the easiest place on earth (ranked 1 out of 180 countries) to set up an anonymous shell company.
• Out of the 13 law firms approached, 12 agreed to at least make suggestions as to how to get the questionable money in the country without raising red flags.
• Banks are legally required to report questionable funds being brought into the country, lawyers are not.
• Congress has attempted to require that the real people behind shell companies are disclosed, but the American Bar Association has successfully lobbied against it.
Now take a watch…(if the video doesn’t work for you, click here (http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/anonymous-inc-greenland/)).
Now that you’ve watched the video, read the following articles detailing the real life consequences of this money laundering:
